For your rear rattle, try takin off the door that covers your jack and tightening the jack hold down knobs. I've had to do that a couple times in mine. As for the others, check what you can then take it in

Hate to say this I have owned 9 Hummers and ALL OF THEM RATTLED like crazy. This is a characteristic of the Hummer Brand. My Brand new $130k Hummer H1 squeaked and had rust on it!!!! All 4 of my H2s had horrible undercarrige corrosion and my H3s creaked as if they were 150 years old. Turn up your radio and the noises go away. If you take it to the dealer you risk plastic parts getting bent, broken or cracked. Push up on the headliner when you are driving and see if that stops it. If so than you need to drop the headliner and tape/fix what ever is making the noise.

Just my couple 2 cents :-)

Thanks guys, especially backnblack and the tip for the jack tightening. All good stuff and I will try exactly what you guys reccomend, I REALLY appreciate the input. I kinda had a feeling about its just characteristic of the Hummer, but I guess I needed to hear it Great idea on pushing up on the headliner, and tighening the jack, going out to try it right now. I still welcome any other input. Thank you again guys and I will let you know how things turn out! Tony

For what? The dealer does not know squat. They are lucky they can spell HUMMER. Squeaks are unavoidable on these trucks. Like I said. I have owned 9 of them and currently own 2. I am also the president of our local Hummer Club and all 150 of my Members squeak and creak

I currently have 2 H-3's. One has 36000 miles, never had a rattle. The second one my 83 year old mom drives. It has 9000 miles and she drives on a POT HOLED DIRT ROAD 4 times a day and she doesn't drive slow. Its only about a mile on the dirt road and it ain't to smooth, no rattles ever...both were purchased in Jan 2006...

so ALL HUMMERS DO NOT RATTLE !

83 Years old = CANNOT HEAR CREAKS or RATTLES

61 Years old = CANNOT HEAR CREAKS or RATTLES

Kidding of course.......But all Hummers rattle. If yours does not rattle somewhere than you have a Hummer that was built on free lunch day at the GM plant.;-)

Just wondering how you're doing in the creaks and rattles department?
